Robert G. Hall, aged "a years, shot and
killed Mrs. Lillian Rivers, aged 80 years, in
Philadelphia, yesterday morning. The
couple were living as man and wife under
the name of Burton. Mrs. Rivers WAS the
wife of James w. Rivers, an actor known as
James Reynolds. A remarkable coincidence
with the present tragedy was the attempt OF
Rivers to take Mrs. Rivers life on April ~
for keeping company with the man Hall,
who Yesterday succeeded in doing what
Rivers had attempted two months ago.
Rivers shot at his wife and inflicted slight
wound in the hip. He then shot himself in
the head and breast, and lay in the hospital
for several weeks, but subsequently recov-
cred, and with his son and daughter left
Thursday for Topeka, Kansas. Hall is q
poet and actor, but had not been very cue.
cesslul in either of those professions. He
and Mrs. Rivers have been intimate for
some time, but the lady with whom they
boarded says they have been lately quarrel
ing great deal. Last evening after quar-
rel Mrs. Rivers left the house, and remained
all night with an acquaintance or 1lth street.
Yesterday morning she had. warrant
issued for Halls arrest, charging him with
uSSdulU anu Ddttciys OclOiO onO noii"no
was served, however, she visited Hall in his
room, and the landady few moments after
heard pistol shots in the room. Apoliceman
was called, and on going to the room Mrs.
Rivers was found dead with two bullet. holes
in her head and her throat cut from ear to
ear. Hall was lying on the floor uncon
scious, having cut his throat with razor.
He was removed to the German Hospital,
and it is thought his injuries will prove ia
tai. Several letters written by Hall were
found in the room, the contents of which
showed that the deed was premeditated.
Hall left letter addressed to the coroner,
asking that bis father, who resides in St.
Louis, be notified of his death, and request
ing that such disposition be made of his
body as his father may direct. The letter is
dated May 20. and states that he takes the
life of himself and wife Mrs. Rivers) be.
cause of the latter's faithlessness, accusing
her of intimacy with man named John Ar
mold In the room was also found mar
riage contract signed Robert G. Burton aud
Lillian E. Rivers, in which they pledge
themselves in marriage "the Same as though
such had been consummated By ceremony"
A letter was addressed to JAS Rivers, Tope-
ka, Kansas. He also left pathetic letter
to his father. When Hall found this morn
ing that his efforts to take his life were una
vaiing he tore the flesh from the wound
with his hands.
